Manual XJR-6. Quite interesting history. Leaper needs to go, and plate not included thank goodness. Appears to have been cherished. Want is strong.

5 grand with a knackered driver's seat... Dream on! Lovely idea though.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jaguar-XJR-with-factory-...

Barge purchase! 1998 Mercedes-Benz CL420 (C140), silver, black nappa leather, 90,000 miles, partial history, new MoT. Lovely to drive, very 'wafty', very quiet, by no means perfect cosmetically but no rust, everything works, including the soft close and the climate control is perfect.
Just under thread budget (started at thread lower limit but gentle negotiation resulted in a bank note of change), I am suitably impressed.
Pics to follow shortly and a new thread in reader's cars.
What? £950!!!??? For a 1998 CL420 with sub-100k miles? That is amazing, isn't it? Pictures required, please. The 420 is reputedly the most economical 140...Just under thread budget (started at thread lower limit but gentle negotiation resulted in a bank note of change), I am suitably impressed.
Pics to follow shortly and a new thread in reader's cars.
For some reason I misread that and thought we were talking £4.Xk (briefly noting that these are fetching more money than I remember). Please tell us more, and congratulations!

The perfect seller! Probably a fellow enthusiast, having just replaced it with a 190E 2.6. Looks a nice buy if you can live with spartan.

£5995 - so a bit above budget, and unlikely to drop enough, but...
550i SE 130,000 miles.
I'd prefer a sport and less miles, but it's not that far away, so might go for a look. Although grey with grey is off-putting

Charlesdegaulle there is a Merc A124 convertible in this month's Classic Mercedes that I think is the same model as yours - with the 320 engine, but the nicer pre-facelift styling. 24k miles though!
Sounds interesting, and possibly the same as mine. A pre-facelift/mid-facelift style is what I have (the obvious clues are the star on the rad rather than bonnet, but with the chrome strips across the top of the sacco panels), and the number preceding the letter - 320 CE rather than CE320. Can you scan or photo it in? What's he asking for it?

I bet that is quite something. I drove a friend's 545i saloon and it was extremely fast; this must just be the same but more so. Pretty stealth-tactic, as well. Link?550i SE 130,000 miles.
